Looking to do a FJ run sometime between 11/19/07 and 11/23/07.

I have a 06 Rubi, which is pretty much stock except for a 3 in lift. I would like to do Elvis, but am open to just about anything. Not looking for body damage, but understand that it is always a possibility.

Please post up if you can lead a trip as I have described, or if you want to go along.

I have the week off and will be camping Monday and Tuesday night down in Sycamore Creek prob near the Old water tank not to far from the end of squeeze rock trail.

If you see me in my Red XJ with an EXO feel free to stop by..

I'm open to join a run on Friday, 11/23.

I'm rolling on 33's with a rear detroit, so any 3.5 would be good for me.

That would be great. Would be nice to do Elvis with you again, and this time during the day. (Will make for better picture takin'.)

As of right now, it looks like the majority would like to go on Friday. But with no one other than yourself volunteering to lead, it appears we'll go whichever day you have off.

That video kills me. I really would like to be in Moab with the fellas. Too much work going on :banghead:

I havn't been to Elvis in awhile. Broke an axle one time on the trail. :dunce2: That trail owes me it would be nice to get through it.

Doesn't someone want to lead a group through Elvis and maybe something else?

I don't want this to become what has been refered to as an "Amber" run. I want to wheel, but I haven't been at this long enough to lead a run.

PLEASE, don't make me spend the entire week sitting at home.

I was hoping to get out there during the week, when it might be a little less crowded, but since I don't know how to get there, I'll go whenever I can find a leader. My weekends, since the weather is cooling down, are being filled with honeydos, but again, I'll go when someone can lead.

So Adam, you pick the date and time.

What is the scoop on this run. I am still in for the day at FJ. Is anyone still planning on heading out?

Haven't been able to find anyone to lead. I've only been out there once, and sure I wouldn't be able to find it. If anyone wants to head out that way and just wheel around, we could do Box Canyon. That's not too hard to find.

REALLY would like to do Elvis though. Please, isn't there someone who has Friday off, that would be willing to be leader?

Last time I was on Elvis was in 04. I may be able to find the turn off. I wish I had my GPS last time I went. Let's plan a meet time and meet at the Price Rd. turn off and go from there. I am game for any time. I have the whole day :) If we miss the turn then we can hit box canyon or something. It doesn't matter to me much, I just want to get out and play.

Bill, are you stil planning on coming out?

Benny.

I did Elvis on Sunday:

To be honest, I'm seriously considering doing this run:

It all depends on what/if my son [college boy]would want to spend a day wheeling with his old man.He will be home tomorrow.

I do have GPS waypoints for Elvis.

Great. Looks like we have someone to help us find the trail. Next, what time do we want to meet? Should we do 8, 8:30, or 9?

Bill Ritter

My son voted Elvis.

You guys pick the time and I will lead.
